I play the guitar for 3 years now but never recorded myself... I got myself a nice Fender American stratocaster and a small Fender tube amp. Oh and Stevie Ray Vaughan ROCKS!
Depends what you call music. Some people might make melodic noise, but I've yet to hear music from this community (although I haven't listened to everything this place has to offer).
My hubby has played the guitar for almost 15 years, and has played with three or four bands in the past. It's mostly really aggressive heavy metal, not really everyone's cup of tea. But he's also dabbled with some electronic, piano, and a few synth-orchestra pieces.
